Modelling of the FPS for the internal coils and investigating controller discretization effects in TCV

The tokamak in Lausanne, Switzerland (TCV), has been designed to investigate highly elongated plasmas. The elongation improves performance but also introduces a vertical position instability which requires active feedback control to stabilize. The potentia ...

UWB-based system for UAV Localization in GNSS-Denied Environments: Characterization and Dataset

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano

Small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have penetrated multiple domains over the past years. In GNSS-denied or indoor environments, aerial robots require a robust and stable localization system, often with external feedback, in order to fly safely. Motion ca ...

An adaptive primal-dual framework for nonsmooth convex minimization

Volkan Cevher, Quoc Tran Dinh, Ahmet Alacaoglu

We propose a new self-adaptive and double-loop smoothing algorithm to solve composite, nonsmooth, and constrained convex optimization problems. Our algorithm is based on Nesterov’s smoothing technique via general Bregman distance functions. It self-adaptiv ...

Real Time Hybrid Model Predictive Control for the Current Profile of the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV)

Stefano Coda, Jean-Marc Moret, Hoang Bao Le

Plasma stability is one of the obstacles in the path to the successful operation of fusion devices. Numerical control-oriented codes as it is the case of the widely accepted RZIp may be used within Tokamak simulations. The novelty of this article relies in ...

Implementation issues on the design of current loops based on resonant regulators for isolated microgrids

Federico De Bosio

This paper analyzes the influence of state feedback coupling between the capacitor voltage and inductor current in voltage source inverters (VSI) operating in stand-alone microgrids. A decoupling technique is proposed as an effective measure to enhance the ...

Passive Interaction Control With Dynamical Systems

Aude Billard, Klas Jonas Alfred Kronander

Abstract: Autonomous dynamical systems (DS) has emerged as an extremely flexible and powerful method for modeling robotic tasks. Task execution of DS models is typically done in an open-loop manner in combination with standard low level controller, e.g. po ...

TRF2-Mediated Control of Telomere DNA Topology as a Mechanism for Chromosome-End Protection

Eric Aeby, Jing Ye, Bei Pei

The shelterin proteins protect telomeres against activation of the DNA damage checkpoints and recombinational repair. We show here that a dimer of the shelterin subunit TRF2 wraps similar to 90 bp of DNA through several lysine and arginine residues localiz ...

The renormalon diagram in gauge theories on R-3 x S-1

We analyze the renormalon diagram of gauge theories on . In particular, we perform exact one loop calculations for the vacuum polarization in QCD with adjoint matter and observe that all infrared logarithms, as functions of the external momentum, cancel be ...

Variational minimization of orbital-density-dependent functionals

Nicola Marzari, Giovanni Borghi, Andrea Ferretti

Orbital-density-dependent functionals, such as the Perdew-Zunger or the Koopmans-compliant functionals, are used to remove unphysical self-interaction energies and to restoremissing piece-wise linearity in approximate formulations of density-functional the ...

Deciding Conditional Termination

We address the problem of conditional termination, which is that of defining the set of initial configurations from which a given program always terminates. First we define the dual set, of initial configurations from which a non-terminating execution exis ...
